I was a knight in the Middle Ages

Chapter 247 Mutants Attack

"Captain Ferold, you keep charging, leave these people to us." Before he finished speaking, the mutant army led by the caracal and the special operations team led by Tony suddenly appeared on the side of the mutants. Although Ferold had doubts in his heart, the situation was urgent at this time and he could not afford to hesitate, so he made a prompt decision and ordered the troops to charge.

After a bloody battle, Ferold led the remaining troops to successfully break through and came to a hidden valley. They urgently needed to recuperate, regroup, and plan the next move.

In the valley, Ferold reorganized the troops. He knew the lesson of this failure and decided to take Alpha's teachings as the code of conduct - avoid direct confrontation with the enemy, adopt guerrilla warfare strategies, and gradually weaken the enemy's strength.

"Captain Caracal, Captain Tony, thank you for your timely rescue, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous." Ferold, who escaped death, sincerely expressed his gratitude to the two.

"Captain Ferrod, you're welcome. This is all arranged by Lord Alpha. He anticipated that you might encounter a crisis, and specially sent us to help at the critical moment. The next task is left to you and Captain Tony." The caracal was not good at speaking, and after giving a few simple instructions, he led the mutant army and disappeared into the darkness.

"Captain Ferrod, we still have a mission to accomplish. Next, I will work with you to fight against these mutant legions." Tony and Alice were both sent by Alpha to perform missions elsewhere in order to test the special forces team's new weapons.

"Your new firearms can kill those monsters, which is undoubtedly a timely help for us." Facing the mutant army, only high-level knights have the strength to fight, otherwise they can only rely on the advantage of numbers to fight a war of attrition. However, this way of fighting is not what Alpha expected.

"Captain Ferrod, the new firearms are certainly powerful, but their limitations cannot be underestimated. Among us, only intermediate knights can use them, and they can only fire three bullets at a time. Therefore, we can only use them as a means of harassment, and not as the main force." Tony analyzed calmly.

This was Tony's first experience with this powerful weapon. He witnessed a bullet fired at a mutant, instantly ripping it apart and turning it into a pool of blood. This scene shocked him.

"Lord Alpha is truly a man of foresight. He actually knew long ago that we would be facing a crisis." Ferod deeply admired Alpha's wisdom. At this moment, he had complete faith in Alpha.

"Unfortunately, the mutant army of the Manul has been exposed. We could have dealt a fatal blow to the enemy." Tony understood that Alpha had not originally intended to expose the Manul, but at the critical moment, there was no other way.

"It was my improper command and my reckless advance that led to this situation." Ferod couldn't bear to put the blame on Arudo. After all, he had already paid the most painful price for his mistakes. Arudo was an excellent warrior.

"It doesn't matter. Lord Alpha already knows about it. If it is exposed, he will implement another plan, which will also deal a heavy blow to the mutants." Tony knew Alpha's plan very well, but he couldn't say it clearly in this place where there were so many people talking.

This crisis caused 40% casualties to Ferod's team, which was far more than the upper limit set by Alpha. According to common sense, Ferod's position as the leader should be revoked. However, Alpha gave Ferod a chance to redeem himself and let him continue to be responsible for the next team work.

A few days later, after sufficient preparation and recuperation, Ferold led this more powerful and flexible army to go out again. They were like cheetahs hiding in the dark, quietly lurking and waiting for the appearance of prey. This time, their battle was no longer just for the pursuit of victory, but also to commemorate their deceased companions, and to fight for survival and revenge.

With precise and fatal strikes, the enemy's casualties continued to increase and morale became increasingly low. However, Ferold and his Knights were reborn in the flames of war, gradually rebuilding their reputation and becoming the most brave and skilled warriors in the empire.

Finally, in a well-planned large-scale offensive, Ferod not only successfully repelled the enemy but also recaptured a large area of ​​lost territory. His outstanding military exploits frightened the enemy, who had no choice but to shrink their defenses. The size of their main army was also reduced from the initial 4,000 to about 2,000. Ferod was therefore praised as a hero, and his name became a symbol of victory.

However, Ferod was not carried away by victory. He knew that behind every victory, there were countless sacrifices and efforts. From then on, he became more cautious in every battle and cherished everyone around him more. Although the war made him lose a lot, it also made him realize the precious truth of life - true victory is based on wisdom and sacrifice. This profound understanding will accompany him throughout his life and become the source of his strength to continue to win on future battlefields.

On the other side of the battlefield, the mutant warriors led by the caracal have arrived at Mark's battlefield. The number of enemies here is relatively small, but they are very scattered, with no more than 500 enemies per group. However, once attacked, the surrounding enemies will quickly move together to form a siege, which makes the situation extremely difficult.

"Knight Caracal, are you saying that Captain Ferrod's army was almost wiped out because they failed to retreat in time and were caught by the enemy?" Mark gasped in shock at the Caracal's explanation.

"That's right. Our presence has been noticed by the enemy, so Lord Alpha asked me to come and discuss with you the plan to inflict a heavy blow on the enemy before the news spreads." This was Alpha's intention. He wanted the caracals to take advantage of the time difference and launch a focused attack on the enemy.

The caracal continued, "The enemy certainly can't imagine that we will launch an attack at this time, which is our advantage. As long as we can quickly eliminate their manpower, we can disrupt their deployment and create favorable conditions for our subsequent operations."

Mark nodded. He understood what the caracal meant. Although this attack was very risky, if it succeeded, it would have a significant impact on the entire battle situation.

In the tense battle, Mark made a prompt decision and quickly summoned the commanders of all the teams. Among them, the special team led by Alice, as the only human knight group capable of long-range strikes, discussed the battle plan in depth with the caracal.

They planned carefully and decided to make full use of the mutants' advantage in night battles, dividing the battlefield into several key areas. Each area was managed by one or two teams to ensure that they could evacuate quickly before the enemy formed a siege. "Our goal is not to annihilate the enemy, but to weaken their combat effectiveness to the greatest extent and disrupt their combat rhythm within the limited time and resources." Mark solemnly emphasized that he knew that after Captain Ferrod was seriously injured, every step must be cautious.

To ensure the secrecy and surprise of the operation, the Manul proposed a night operation. Soldiers would approach the enemy under the cover of darkness, while using light weapons and silent equipment as much as possible to reduce the risk of being discovered.

As the night deepened and the moonlight was obscured by heavy clouds, the mutant warriors showed their unique calmness and agility. They approached the enemy camp quietly and silently. According to the carefully planned steps, they first shot the enemy sentinels with accurate bows and arrows, and then quickly sneaked into the camp like ghosts.

Under the exquisite command of the Manul, each team was like a ghost at night, flexibly shuttling in the enemy camp. They specifically targeted the enemy's command system and logistical reserves, creating chaos and making the enemy panic.

At the same time, Mark led a small team to contain the enemy. Once the enemy tried to encircle them, they launched a surprise attack from the flank, successfully distracting the enemy's attention and creating favorable conditions for the main force's actions.

The magic lance knights led by Alice were responsible for long-range shooting. Like snipers, they hid in the dark, waiting for the best opportunity, and once Mark's whereabouts were exposed, they would use their powerful magic lances to give the enemy a fatal blow.

As the night gradually faded, the mutant knights of the caracal launched a fierce attack on the enemy mutants like a black whirlwind. The silver-winged knights led by Mark showed unparalleled courage and skills in the battle. They shuttled through the battlefield like ghosts and killed a large number of enemy forces.

When Mark gave the signal to retreat, the teams worked closely together and withdrew from the battlefield in an orderly manner according to the predetermined plan. The enemy suffered heavy losses in the night attack, and its command system was in chaos, making it difficult to organize an effective pursuit. When they finally regrouped and prepared to counterattack, Mark and his team had already disappeared in the morning mist.

The success of this night attack not only weakened the enemy's combat effectiveness, but also gave our soldiers a shot in the arm, boosting their morale. When the news was passed back to the main camp, Alpha praised the outstanding performance of the caracal and Mark.

"We must not only surpass the enemy in strength, but also gain advantages in strategy and tactics." Alpha emphasized at the post-war summary meeting, "This action proves that our strategy is correct and also demonstrates the bravery and wisdom of our soldiers."

As time went on, this night attack became a turning point in the war. The enemy's strength gradually declined, while the joint forces led by Alpha pursued the victory, fought more and more bravely, and finally won a comprehensive victory in the west.

After three consecutive successful attacks, the enemy began to realize their disadvantages and chose to gather together to protect themselves. The mutant knights of the caracal were unable to exert their unique offensive capabilities due to the dense defense of the enemy, so they decided to return to Alpha, because that was the key to victory.

Due to the departure of the mutant knights of the manul, the attacking ability of the Mark Knights was seriously affected, which made the battle situation extremely difficult. However, Mark's Silver Wing Knights were not defeated by the difficulties and they quickly adjusted their tactics.

The soldiers of the Silver Wing Knights realized that it was no longer wise to fight the enemy head-on, so they changed their strategy and switched to long-range shooting to attack the enemy's ordinary warriors.

At the same time, Alice's sniper group showed her excellent sniping talent. They chose precise sniping tactics and specifically targeted the enemy's commanders and mutants. This series of actions brought great panic and fear to the enemy.

The soldiers of the Silver Wing Knights are all strictly trained archers. They hold excellent bows and arrows and aim at the enemy accurately from a long distance. Arrow after arrow flies towards the enemy like dense raindrops, making it difficult for the enemy to defend. Alice cleverly hides in a high place. Relying on her excellent sniper skills, every shot can accurately hit the target and kill the enemy commander and mutants one by one.

The enemy was expecting a head-on confrontation with Mark's Knights, but the new tactics of the Silver Wing Knights completely disrupted their plans. The enemy began to fall into confusion, not knowing how to deal with this long-range attack, and could only flee blindly. Mark's Knights seized the opportunity and continued to shoot and kill the enemy, and the number of casualties of the enemy continued to rise.

In this fierce battle, Mark's wisdom and decisive decision-making played a key role. He was able to adapt to the changing battlefield situation in time and adjust tactics to enable the Silver Wing Knights to exert their maximum combat effectiveness. Through this flexible tactical change, the Knights gradually gained the upper hand and suppressed the enemy step by step.

As the battle progressed, the morale of the mutant army gradually declined, and their courage and determination were gradually weakened. At the same time, their number was effectively suppressed to less than 2,000. The Silver Wing Knights' firm will and excellent tactics gradually tilted the balance of victory towards them.

A month later, the mutant knights from the Swiss and Czech states finally arrived in Minsk after going through many hardships and dangers. These mutants looked lifeless and demoralized. The continuous killings made them panic and uneasy. The shadow of death always loomed over them. They had long lost their original will to fight.
